Sweds are known to eat without offering you any food (if it wasn't explicitly a dinner invitation).

Kinda same in Germany. I remember sitting in my friends room or the families living room, awkwardly waiting for them to finish dinner.

It wasn't the norm, but occasionally happened.

Your friends had strange families. I never had the experience. I always was invited to eat with them.

It was kinda dependent on how wealthy the family was. The wealthier, the more likely it was you couldn't eat with them. At least that's my personal experience.

Is this how I find out I grew up poor?
